The present invention relates to an organic silicone resin powder comprising a copolymer;produced by polymerization reaction between a reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the reactive group, which can improve the feel of cosmetics, wax, coating color and like materials when the powder is mixed therewith, specifically which can elevate spreadability of such materials as cited above, that is, enables the materials to be applied more evenly and more thinly, and further can ensure gloss in their outward appearance.
Further, the invention is concerned with a cosmetic material which contains an organic silicone resin powder comprising a copolymer produced by the polymerization reaction between an organopolysiloxane having reactive group(s) and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the foregoing reactive group(s) to improve adhesiveness as well as impressions created by the application thereof, such as a dry feel and a feeling of refreshment, and application characteristics, such as spreadability.
The cosmetic materials currently in use comprise a composition containing an inorganic powder, such as titanium oxide, mixed with a resin of hydrocarbon type or silicone type for the purpose of improving the characteristics required therefor and advancing such improvements. The characteristics required for cosmetic materials, as mentioned above, include pleasant feels upon application, such as a dry feel and a feeling of refreshment, spreading properties, such as even and thin application, and texture, such as gloss and color.
For instance, the cosmetic material containing a hydrocarbon type of synthetic resin powder, such as powder of polyethylene resin, polyamide resin, acrylic resin, vinyl chloride resin or epoxy resin, is disclosed in Japanese Tokkai Sho 52-99236 (the term "Tokkai" as used herein means an "unexamined published patent application").
As examples of a cosmetic material into which a resin of silicone type is compounded, mention may be made of the cosmetic material disclosed in Japanese Tokkai Hei 1-268615, which contains a powder of polyorganosilsesquioxane as a three-dimensionally cross-linked silicone, and the cosmetic material containing finely pulverized silicone rubber having elasticity as disclosed in Japanese Tokko Hei 7-53646 (the term "Tokko" as used herein means an "examined.:patent publication").
As to the inorganic powder, on the other hand, red iron oxide and titanium oxide have hitherto been used as pigment, and tabular powders, such as mica and sericite, have so far been used as an essential component of nail color, nail coat, face powder, mascara or eyeliner.
Those inorganic powders have hydroxyl groups on their surfaces, so that they are generally used after undergoing silicone, fluoropolymer, metallic soap or activator treatment for weakening their surface activity and the cohesiveness thereof or making the surfaces hydrophobic.
However, the cosmetic materials containing the hydrocarbon type of synthetic resins as recited above are generally apt to have high hardness, and so the application thereof occasionally arises a uncomfortable feeling, such as a hard feel, in the users.
On the other hand, the cosmetic materials containing finely pulverized silicone rubber can wipe away a hard feel, but they are not easy to handle because of lack in fluidity and sometimes difficult to homogeneously mix with other ingredients because of their strong cohesiveness and their inferiority in compatibility.
In general those conventional fine silicone particles are prepared by an emulsion polymerization method. As a result, such particles have a spherical shape or a shape close thereto. While the spherical particles are used in a cosmetic material for the purpose of improving the sliding properties and reducing a tacky feel at the time the cosmetic material is applied to the skin, they lower the adhesiveness of the cosmetic material to the skin because of their shape. Therefore, it is usually tried to improve the adhesiveness by compounding an inorganic tabular powder, such as mica or sericite powder, into a cosmetic material.
However, those inorganic tabular powders have their specific gravity in the range of, 12-3, and so their specific gravity is greater than those of other ingredients to constitute a cosmetic material. In addition, they contain impurities because of natural materials, and so they are dull in color. Accordingly, when such heavy inorganic tabular powders are compounded into a liquid cosmetic material, they cause a problem of precipitation. Further, as the color of such powders become much darker when wetted by oil, compounding with them lowers the color saturation of the resultant cosmetic material.
The present invention is: made aiming chiefly at dissolving the aforementioned problems. More specifically, a first object of the invention is to provide an organic silicone powder which, when it is compounded with other ingredients into a composition, does not arise in users of the composition an uncomfortable feeling, such as a hard feel or a tacky touch, which is the problem of conventional resin powders of hydrocarbon or silicone type, and forms no sediment because of its low specific gravity, and further can improve the texture of the composition, including the gloss and the touch thereof, and the impressions that the users have upon application thereof, such as spreadability and feels.
A second object of the invention is to provide a method of producing the organic silicone resin powder as mentioned above.
A third object of the invention is to provide a cosmetic material comprising a powder which can impart improved moist or dry feel, and enhanced refreshing effect to the cosmetic material, can elevate not only application characteristics, including spreadability, but also adhesiveness, and further has improved specific gravity, compatibility and dispersibility to form no deposit.
One of the subject matters of the invention is an organic silicone resin powder that has a tabular shape the aspect ratio of which is greater than about 1 land comprises a copolymer produced by polymerization reaction between an organopolysiloxane containing at least one reactive group and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the reactive group. Therein, the reactive group may be a radical polymerizable group, while the monomer or oligomer may have radical polymerizability. This organic silicone resin powder may further comprise an inorganic powder.
Another subject matter of the invention is a method of producing an organic silicone resin powder having a tabular shape the aspect ratio of which is greater than about 1, with the method comprising the steps of forming a film from a copolymer produced by polymerization reaction between an organopolysiloxane containing at least one reactive group and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the reactive group, grinding the film into a powder, and then putting the powder through a sieve. Therein, the film may be formed using a biaxial extruder.
Still another subject matter of the invention is a cosmetic material which contains an organic silicone resin powder having a tabular shape the aspect ratio of which is greater about 1 and comprising: a copolymer produced by polymerization reaction between an organopolysiloxane containing at least one reactive group and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the reactive group. In such a cosmetic material, the foregoing organic silicone resin powder may be contained in a proportion of from about 0.01 to about 50 weight %. In addition, the number average molecular weight of the foregoing copolymers may be from about 2,000 to about 100,000. Further, the cosmetic material may further contain at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of oils, surfactants and powders.
Herein, the term "aspect ratio" is defined as the b/a ratio, when the thickness of a resin powder particle is taken as "a" and the major axis thereof is taken as "b". Therefore, the particles are regarded as more tabular the greater their aspect ratio is.
The preferred embodiments of the present invention are illustrated below. However, the invention should not be construed as being limited to these embodiments.
The particles constituting the present organic silicone resin powder have a tabular shape, and the thickness thereof is in the range of about 0.1 μm to about 2 μm. Considered from the standpoints of easiness of handling and impressions created by the application thereof, it is desirable that their average particle diameter on a volume equivalent basis (Dp50) be from about 0.1 to about 100 μm, particularly preferably from 1 to 50 μm. A reason therefor is in that when the thickness and diameter of particles are smaller than the foregoing range the gloss, which is characteristic of;powder, tends to be lost; while the particles having greater thickness and diameter than the foregoing range tend to give a rough feel.
Although the organic silicone resin powder having an aspect ratio greater than about 1 can serve the present purpose, it is desirable for the powder to have its aspect ratio in the range of 5 to 50 in order to further enhance its effects and make them more certain.
The reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes and the monomers or oligomers capable of reacting to the reactive groups contained in such organopolysiloxanes, which are usable in producing copolymers according to the present invention, are illustrated below.
The reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes usable in the invention are represented by the following formula;
wherein A is a reactive group, R is a univalent hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms, x is from 0.002 to 1.5 and y is from 0 to 3.0, provided that 1.5≦x+y≦2.5.
The R groups which constitute the foregoing organopolysiloxane molecule may be the same or different.
The reactive group represented by A is intended to include functional groups having chemical reactivity. Suitable examples of such a functional group include an amino group, a hydroxyl group, an epoxy group, a carboxylic acid group, and radical polymerizable groups, such as vinyl, styryl, α-methylstyryl, acryl and methacryl groups.
Specifically, the reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes are, e.g., amino-modified silicones, alcohol-modified silicones, epoxy-modified silicones, carboxylic acid-modified silicones, vinyl-modified silicones, styrene-modified silicones, bisphenol A-modified silicones, acrylic-modified silicones, methacryl-modified silicones, or maleic anhydride-modified silicones.
Of the reactive group-modified silicones as recited above, the modified silicones having acrylic reactive groups, such as acrylate or methacrylate groups, are preferred over the others because of their high reactivity, easiness of reaction control and easy availability of raw materials.
As far as organopolysiloxanes have at least one reactive group in their respective organopolysiloxane skeletons, they can serve the present purpose. And, considering the reactivity, it is desirable for the reactive:group to be situated at a terminal position of organopolysiloxane molecule.
Also, the organopolysiloxanes containing two or more of reactive groups per molecule can be used in the invention, as seen from the definition of x and y in the formula illustrated above, and those reactive groups may be the same or different. In addition, the organopolysiloxane used in the invention may have not only a linear skeleton but also a branched skeleton.
Further, the organopolysiloxane used in the invention may be a mixture of two or more of reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes differing in molecular weight.
As far as the reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane selected from the aforementioned range is employed, the resultant organic silicone resin powder can have improved spreadability and give desirable impressions, e.g., a moist feel, to users.
The reactive monomers or oligomers usable for the production of copolymers according to the present invention are monomers or oligomers which each have a functional group capable of reacting to the reactive groups contained in the organopolysiloxanes mentioned above. More specifically, when the reactive group contained in an organopolysiloxane used in copolymerization is an amino group, an alcoholic group, an epoxy group, a carboxylic acid group or a radical polymerizable group, the reactive group of the monomer or oligomer to be selected for the copolymerization is a functional group as a counterpart of the above-recited reactive group, namely an epoxy group, a carboxylic acid group, an amino group, an alcoholic group or a radical polymerizable group respectively.
In view of high reactivity, easy control of reaction and easy availability of raw materials, similarly to the case of the foregoing reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes, it is desirable for the reactive monomer or oligomer to be a monomer containing a radical polymerizable group or an oligomer thereof. Suitable examples of such a monomer or oligomer include α-olefins (such as ethylene, propylene, butene, pentene, 4-methylpentene, hexene, heptene, octene, vinylcyclohoxene, styrene, a-methylstyrene, vinyltoluene, vinylethylbenzene, vinylxylene, p-t-butylstyrene and α-methyl-p-methylstyrene), acrylonlitrile, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, isobornyl acrylate, dicyclopentenyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, N,N-diemthylacrylamide, N-vinylacetamde, N-vinylpyrrolidone, N-vinylcaprolactam, acryloylmorpholine, N-vinylimidazole, maleic anhydride, phenylimide, and oligomers of the monomers as recited above.
Also, the reactive monomer may be a polyfunctional monomer, such as tricyclodecanedimethanol diacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate or polyethylene (propylene) glycol diacrylate.
The reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane and the reactive monomer or oligomer a re properly selected from their respective exemplifications as recited above, and subjected to copolymerization reaction. In a special case where organopolysiloxanes are grafted onto an organic resin by copolymerization of a radical polymerizable monomer and a radical polymerizable group-containing organopolysiloxane, it is advantageous to use an organopolysiloxane having a radical polymerizable group at one end of the siloxane chain.
The foregoing radical polymerizable monomer and radical polymerizable group-containing organopolysiloxane can be copolymerized in a conventional manner using a radical initiator, such as benzoyl peroxide or azobisisobutyronitrile. As to the method for copolymerization, any method of emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization and block polymerization may be adopted therein.
When the thus produced copolymer has hydroxyl groups, it may be further reacted with a dibasic acid anhydride to convert a part of the hydroxyl groups into carboxyl groups, thereby producing a modified copolymer.
Further, the modified copolymer thus produced can be neutralized with an alkali solution to be further converted into the carboxylic acid salt.
The copolymers produced using the aforementioned methods have their individual weight average molecular weight in the range of 2,000 to 100,000, preferably 5,000 to 60,000.
When the copolymer has a weight average molecular weight lower than 2,000, the powder thereof is brittle, and the cosmetic material mixed therewith tends to have a tacky feel. When the copolymer has a weight average molecular weight higher than 100,000, on the other hand, the powder thereof is apt to have high hardness, and so the; cosmetic material mixed therewith tend to have a rough feel. Therefore, it is desirable for the present copolymers to have their individual molecular weight within the foregoing limits. Additionally, the aforementioned drawbacks are certain to be removed as far as the weight average molecular weight is from 5,000 to 60,000.
Further, it is desirable that the compounding ratio of reactive group-containing organopolysiloxanes to reactive monomers or oligomers be in the range of 0.1/99.9 to 50/50, particularly from 5/95 to 30/70, by weight.
When the reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane is compounded in a proportion lower than 0.1 weight %, the resultant copolymer sometimes rails to exhibit marked characteristics of organopolysiloxanes, including slipping properties; while, when it is compounded in a proportion higher than 50 weight %, the glass transition temperature thereof is liable to drop, the composition containing the resultant copolymer, such as a cosmetic material, tends to arise an uncomfortable feeling, e.g., a stiff feel, in users.
Then, if the foregoing compounding ratio is selected from the range of 5/95 to 30/70 by weight, it becomes certain that the resultant copolymer can exhibit marked characteristics of organopolysiloxanes, such as slipping properties, and can have a glass transition temperature of at least 40°C C. to arise no uncomfortable feeling.
For raising the molecular weight of the present copolymers, various methods can be adopted, with examples including a method of controlling the compounding ratio upon copolymerization, a method of carrying out copolymerization using at least two kinds of compounds for either or both of copolymerizable monomers (namely a reactive monomer or oligomer and a reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane), a method of carrying out copolymerization using a polyfunctional group-introduced compound for either of copolymerizable monomers, and a method of carrying out the copolymerization of a reactive monomer or oligomer and a reactive group-containing organopolysiloxane in the presence of compounds reactive to the monomer or the oligomer and/or the organopolysiloxane.
More specifically, when an olefin monomer containing a carboxylic acid group is chosen as the reactive monomer, the olefin monomer can undergo not only the dehydration condensation reaction with an organopolysiloxane having alcoholic group(s) reactive to the carboxylic acid group and a polyhydric alcohol, such as glycol, but also radical polymerization, thereby producing a copolymer.
In another case of copolymerization, the olefin monomer containing an epoxy group instead of the carboxylic acid group in the foregoing case is chosen as the reactive monomer, and the addition reaction may be carried out using such an olefin monomer in combination with an organopolysiloxane containing amino group(s) instead of the alcoholic group(s) in the foregoing case and an amino compound.
Instead of using polyfunctional reactive monomers in the copolymerization reaction, the organopolysiloxane used therein maybe chosen from polyfunctional organopolysiloxanes.
In the next place, the method of preparing the present organic silicone resin powder having a tabular shape and an aspect ratio greater than about 1, which can be mixed in cosmetic materials, is illustrated below.
After the copolymer is produced in accordance with any of the aforementioned methods, the resin component is separated by distilling off the solvent, or it is reprecipitated as a powdery matter with methanol or the like and then filtered off.
During, before or after the copolymerization reaction, an inorganic matrix, such as an inorganic powder (e.g., titanium oxide, mica or titanium mica), a pearl brightener or an inorganic pigment, and general additives for synthetic resins, such as a lubricant (e.g., silicone oil), an antistatic agent, an ultraviolet absorbent and an antioxidant, can be added to the reaction system.
Thus, the powder having the desired outward appearance, which was impossible for conventional inorganic powders to have, can be obtained.
The resin component thus obtained is made into a tabular powder in a manner as described below: For instance, the resin component is dissolved in an organic solvent, made into a thin film, and then ground into a powder. In another manner, the resin component may be formed into a film by means of a biaxial extruder, and further stretched. In still another manner, the powder obtained by reprecipitation may be dried, and then ground into a fine powder. Anyhow, a tabular powder which can make the same impression as mica on users can be formed by coating a solution of resin component on a base in a filmy layer, similarly to the case of preparing release paper, peeling the layer away from the base and then grinding it.
In pulverizing the resin component obtained, hitherto known grinder, such as a primary crusher (e.g., a cutter mill, a hammer mill or a jaw crusher) or a pulverizer (e.g., a stamp mill, a jet mill, a ball mill, a roller mill, a pin-type mill or an impeller mill), may be employed. Additionally, the apparatus as recited above may be used under a cooled or heated condition.
The thus obtained powder is sifted out by means of a classifier to prepare organic silicone resin particles having a tabular shape and the desired diameter and aspect ratio.
Further, the tabular particles thus prepared may undergo a surface treatment using, e.g., metal soap, alumina, silica or phosphoric acid.
The average particle diameter of tabular powder on a volume equivalent basis (Dp50) is determined by a screening method, a laser method or a centrifugal sedimentation method. The average thickness of tabular particles is calculated by selecting several particles arbitrarily from the particles in the visual field of an electron microscope, measuring their respective thicknesses, and calculating the average value of the measured values. And the aspect ratio is calculated from the thus measured average particle diameter and thickness.
The organic silicone resin powder prepared in the manner as mentioned above is mixed as one ingredient of a cosmetic material in a proportion of, e.g., 0.01 to 50 weight %.
When the proportion of the powder mixed is smaller than 0.01 weight %, the resultant cosmetic material cannot have desirable feels, such as a dry feel, in some cases; while the proportion increased beyond 50 weight % tends to impair the applicability of the resultant cosmetic material, such as smooth and even spreadability. Therefore, it is desirable for the proportion of the powder mixed to be in the foregoing range. The more suitable range thereof is from 0.05 to 20 weight %, and this range is certain to remove the foregoing drawbacks.
The cosmetic materials containing the aforementioned organic silicone resin powder can have a remarkable reduction in specific gravity, compared with those containing conventional inorganic powders, so that they can successfully avoid precipitating the powder by aging.
Further, even an uncomfortable texture, such as a rough or tacky touch, the cosmetic materials tend to have when they contain a conventional resin of hydrocarbon type or silicone type respectively as an ingredient thereof, can be dissolved by adding thereto the present organic silicone resin powder which is made up of a copolymer having improved compatibility and dispersibility, and further has a tabular shape having an aspect ratio greater about 1. Moreover, the addition of the present organic silicone resin powder makes it possible to impart only the advantageous properties each resin has by nature, such as stability and a moist feel, to cosmetic materials.
As mentioned above, the present powder is remarkably improved in not only properties but also easiness of handling, compared with hitherto employed inorganic powders, so that it can be a highly satisfactory substitute for conventional inorganic powders.

Toluene in an amount of 100 parts was placed in a glass-made reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer, a reflux condenser, a thermometer and a nitrogen introduction tube, and thereinto nitrogen gas was blown to remove the dissolved oxygen from the toluene. Thereto, 70 parts by weight of styrene and 30 parts by weight of Organopolysiloxane (1) represented by the following formula (i) were added, and then 0.2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile was added as the reaction vessel was kept at a temperature of 80°C C.
Further, 0.2 parts by; weight portions of azobisisobutyronitrile were added at intervals of two hours till the non-volatile component concentration in the reaction solution was increased beyond 50%. After the reaction was completed, the resulting solution was cooled to room temperature, and poured into 300 parts by weight of methanol to deposit a colorless powdery resin. The thus deposited resin was filtered off, dried, and examined for molecular weight and glass transition point by GPC measurement and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), respectively. Thus, it was found that the weight average molecular weight of the resin obtained was 43,000 on a polystyrene basis and the glass transition point thereof was 62°C C.
The thus synthesized resin was dissolved in toluene, applied to an aluminum plate, and then dried to form a film. The film thus formed was ground into a powder by a jet mill, and put through a 325-mesh sieve. Thus, a tabular powder of organic silicone resin having an average particle size of 30 μm was obtained. The particles constituting the thus obtained tabular powder had an average aspect ratio of 32, determined from electron micrographs thereof.
Toluene in an amount of 40 parts was placed in a glass-made reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer, a reflux condenser, a thermometer and a nitrogen introduction tube, and thereinto nitrogen gas was blown to remove the dissolved oxygen from the toluene. Thereto was added dropwise a mixture of 24 parts by weight of methyl methacrylate, 6 parts by weight of butyl methacrylate, 4 parts by weight of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and 6 parts by weight of Organopolysiloxane (2) represented by the following formula together with 0.6 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile while keeping the reaction vessel temperature at 90°C C.
After 2-hour lapse, the reaction solution was further mixed with 0. 2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile, and ripened for five hours to complete the reaction. After the completion of the reaction, the resultant solution was cooled to room temperature, and thereto methyl ethyl ketone was added to thoroughly dissolve the resin component, followed by filtration.
The thus obtained synthetic resin solution was processed in the same manner as in Example 1, thereby preparing a tabular powder of organic silicone resin having a weight average molecular weight of 28, 000 and a glass transition point of 80°C C. And the organic silicone resin powder obtained herein had an powder of organic silicone resin having a weight average molecular weight of 28,000 and a glass transition point of 80°C C. And the organic silicone resin powder obtained herein had an average particle size of 24 μm and an average aspect ratio of 28.

Thereto were added dropwise a mixture of 26 parts by weight of methyl methacrylate with 4 parts by weight of methacrylic acid and 0.2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile while keeping the reaction vessel temperature at 80°C C. After 7-hour lapse, 0.2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile was further added to the reaction solution, and the ripening was carried out for four hours to complete the reaction. After the completion of the reaction, the resultant solution was cooled to room temperature, and poured into 300 parts by weight of methanol to precipitate a colorless powdery resin.
The powdery resin obtained was dissolved in methyl ethyl ketone, and the resultant resin solution was processed in the same manner as in Example 1, thereby preparing a tabular powder of organic silicone resin having a weight average molecular weight of 32,000 and a glass transition point of 110°C C. And the organic silicone resin powder obtained herein had an average particle size of 15 μm and an average aspect ratio of 19.
Toluene in an amount of 100 parts was placed in a glass-made reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer, a reflux condenser, a thermometer and a nitrogen introduction tube, and thereinto nitrogen gas was blown to remove the dissolved oxygen from the toluene. Thereto, 70 parts by weight of styrene, 30 parts by weight of Organopolysiloxane (1) illustrated above and 0.5 parts by weight of trimethoxymethacryloylpropylsilane were added, and then 0.2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile was added as the reaction vessel was kept at a temperature of 80°C C. Further, 0.2 parts by weight portions of azobisisobutyronitrile were added at intervals of two hours till the non-volatile component concentration in the reaction solution was increased beyond 50%. After the reaction was completed, a small portion of the reaction solution was taken out, dried, and subjected to molecular weight measurement by GPC. The thus determined weight average molecular weight of the reaction product was 45,000 on a polystyrene basis. Then, the reaction solution was mixed with 2 parts by weight of fine grain titanium oxide, and the stirring thereof was further continued under heating. The thus treated reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and poured into 300 parts by weight of methanol to deposit a colorless powdery resin. The thus deposited resin was examined for glass transition point by DSC. And the glass transition point thereof was found to be 64°C C.

In addition, the present aerosol composition had high re-dispersibility, so it was very usable.
The milky lotion was prepared using the same ingredients under the same compounding condition:as in Example 5, except that the titanium oxide-incorporated tabular powder of organic silicone resin having an aspect ratio greater than about 1, which was prepared in Example 4, was used in place of the tabular powder of organic silicone resin having an aspect ratio of 32 (which was free of titanium oxide).
The milky lotion obtained had fine appearance similarly to that obtained in Example 5, arouse no uncomfortable feelings, such as rough and tacky feels, in the users when applied to their skin, spread smoothly, caused dry and refreshed feels in the applied skin, and had a very smooth texture.
Further, this milky lotion was stored in a reagent bottle for aging test. Even after 3-month lapse, the lotion had no deposit although it contained the inorganic powder.
The white resin powder prepared by copolymerization reaction according to the same method as in Example 1 was dried, ground with a jet mill, and then put through a sieve. Thus, the organic silicone resin powder having an average particle size of 20 μm was obtained. As to the powder shape, the resin powder obtained was a mixture of globular, columnar, stick-like, tabular and acicular particles.
Another milky lotion was prepared under the same compounding condition as in Example 5, except that the organic silicone resin powder obtained above, was used in place of the tabular powder of organic silicone resin having an aspect ratio of 32. The lotion thus obtained had la dusty gloss and arouse an uncomfortable feeling in users when applied to their skin.
Still another milky lotion was:prepared under the same compounding condition as in Example 5, except that untreated mica was used in place of the tabular powder of organic silicone resin having an aspect ratio of 32.
The thus obtained lotion had a fine appearance, but the aging test by the storage in a reagent bottle showed that it formed a little deposit after the lapse of one week.
Additionally, the foregoing examples are some embodiments of the invention, so that the present invention should not be construed as being limited to those examples. Therefore, any materials are included in the technical scope of the invention if they have in a substantial sense the same constitutions as the technological ideas described in the present claims and the same functions and effects as the present materials.
For instance, although the organic silicone resin powder used as one ingredient of a cosmetic material in each of Examples 5 to 16 is the tabular (aspect ratio: greater than about 1) powder of a copolymer prepared from a radical polymerizable group-containing dimethylorganopolysiloxane and radical polymerizable monomer(s), the same effects are produced even when the copolymer used is a copolymer prepared from compounds having reactive groups other than radical polymerizable groups, e.g., a copolymer of Organopolysiloxane(s) and monomer (s) whose reactive groups are different from each other, such as carboxylic acid group and alcoholic group.
In accordance with the invention, the organic silicone resin is a copolymer prepared by polymerization reaction between an Organopolysiloxane containing one or more of a reactive group and at least one kind of monomer or oligomer capable of reacting to the reactive group, and the powder of such a copolymer is a tabular powder having an aspect ratio greater than about 1. The cosmetic materials containing the present tabular powder as one essential ingredient are non-viscous, arise neither tacky nor heavy feelings in the persons who put them on the skin or the like, spread lightly and smoothly, have good adhesiveness. The skin to which the cosmetic material according to the invention is applied has a dry and smooth texture and acquires a refreshed feel, and these effects last a long time. In other words, the cosmetic materials according to the invention produce a comfortable feeling and excellent results when applied to skin, hair, or so on.
Further, the present organic silicone resin powder has a markedly small specific gravity, compared with inorganic powders so far been used, so that it causes no conventional precipitation trouble.
Furthermore, as the present, organic silicone resin powder has excellent compatibility:with base substances of cosmetics and high dispersibility therein, mixing it as an essential ingredient in cosmetics not only dissolves uncomfortable feels, such as a rough feel which is liable to be caused when conventional organic resin powders are mixed therein and a tacky feel which is liable to be caused when conventional silicone resin powders are mixed therein, but also confer excellent characteristics those conventional resins have by nature, such as stability and a moist texture, on the cosmetics.
Therefore, the combined use of the present organic silicone resin powder and conventional inorganic powders in cosmetics can remarkably improve, the characteristics and handling easiness of the resultant cosmetics, compared with the independent use of inorganic powders in cosmetics, and enables the inexpensive and easy preparation of cosmetics.
